A Cresco, made by pacific aircraft in Hamilton NZ.

A beefed up fletcher, the fletcher originally came out with a IO-540 ( 300 HP ).

But now the Cresco has a PT6-34A, with a panty ripping 750 HP.

Wrooooong...originally a 220HP Continental
Tin has flown the 240 and 260 HP Contis . IO-540 upgrades began in the 60's


I doubt whether 750HP would rip anyones pants but it may be quieter.
